2001 PNC - 100 Years of Service - Centenary of the Army
It includes a 2001 'C' mintmark Centenary of the Army $1 coin and two 45 cent Army - 100 years of Service Postage Stamps.
The reverse of this coin shows the iconic 'Rising Sun' Australian Army badge surrounded by the legend "The Australian Army 1901 - 2001". The Rising Sun badge originates back to 1902 when a badge was required for Australian colonial forces operating in South Africa during the Boer War.
The postage stamps have been cancelled with a specially prepared ink rendition of the Army's Rising Sun badge with the wording 'First Day of Issue 15 February 2001 St. Kilda Road Melbourne Vic. 3004'.
